In a moment of lunacy a few weeks ago I signed myself and my husband up for a marathon this October.
I'm now holding myself to a strict training schedule out of sheer terror. This morning I'm heading out for my first 6+ mile (10 k) run since last fall. Wish me luck!

Poor guy. Glad that was all that was hurt. The meds probably made it feel better, so he forgot about it.

Thanks! Yesterday's run went ok, despite it being very humid out (and me not used to that yet).

Ugh, yeah. When I was in Washington during the summer that was awful. Is it anywhere near as humid where you are now?

How's the running going, Tolkienfan?
I got permission to go back to school and get a diploma in guiding talented kids. School says that as it is in their own interest, they'll even pay some of the fees. Yay!

So I completely forgot that the "Misquote the person above you" thread existed. Good times, good times.
I've noticed that it's a very inflammatory thread, though.

I've been getting some good laughs with that thread. Especially the questioning of our sanity bit lol

That's awesome that you're going back to school! (and getting paid for it!) What kind of guidance will you be learning to do? Will you be teaching upper-level classes, or more along the lines of helping them with career/further education opportunities?

No, I will help talented students (alongside teaching, that will still be my main job) when they have problems, but also with fully developing their talents. I will also help my colleagues deal with these talented students. And I suppose I will have to talk to the parents too. Perhaps I'll learn to appreciate parents a bit more if I meet with them in a different capacity.
Good on you with the running bit!

Tybbe was hurt, but his painkillers made him forget that. Then he went all out and of course that wasn't the best thing to do. He didn't learn his lesson from that either.
Yes, that's what I and school thought

Is this like the conversation thread? My boyfriend said ist was The Green Dragon, silly man.
So some of you are runners? I run 10K to 8mi every morning with wind sprints on Sunday. My last marathon was last November Susie |

The Green Dragon would be for a forum for Hobbits. We're Ents here. That's why there are 2-year breaks between our posts.

We don't talk about anything that isn't worth taking a long time to talk about.

Well, it's like the Green Dragon, as in we've got all the food and drinks you'd want and plenty of people to talk to about pretty much very thing. We're just -hoom- a little slower, generally. |
